When did you realize its total potential?

The dress rehearsal. They were in costume for the earlier rehearsals on Saturday with their wigs and outfits but not the prosthetics. It was funny to look back and see Ryan and know he was nodding along to what I was talking about. I could hear people giggle. But yes, the dress rehearsal was when the prosthetics made their debut — the noses and the mouths. I didn’t know about Mikey’s exposed gums and teeth.

Oh, that’s great, so this wasn’t a Stefon-esque moment sprung to you in the live show.

This makes me feel almost even worse and unprofessional. When I looked and saw Mikey in the dress rehearsal, I lost it. I was shocked. I’m thinking about it right now and laughing. I recovered and tried to tell myself in between dress and the live show, You can’t laugh like that again. I was trying to imagine seeing him in my head so I was prepared for it, but I just couldn’t prepare for what I saw. I really tried. I even saw Mikey out of the corner of my eye seconds before I went live. I saw the red shorts. I knew I couldn’t look over there again. Mikey even told me later that he was bending down and hiding himself so I wouldn’t see him.
